Made in Wirral by me, Alison Bailey Smith. I trained as a jeweller in Edinburgh in the 80s and 90s and have been recycling since then, in different places all round the world. Now back in the UK.My work is definitely a by-product of the 21st C & I’ve been described as a 'techno -cannibal' by BBC journalist Clare English. My career has spanned 3 decades & 3 different countries since leaving Edinburgh College of Art in 1990. The motivation behind my work comes from being the child of post war parents, Scottish thriftiness & an avid watcher of Blue Peter! I am keen to re-use, re-develop & re-create at my home & in my business. This piece is part of a group of brooches of concentric circles made during lockdown and inspired by painter Kandinsky's colour studies from 1913. https://www.wassilykandinsky.net/work-370.php B 96/20
